Bring fun and excitement to your child's summer as we bring Broadway to life! This three-day interactive Camp will let your child act like a real theatre star when they are part of our mini production of Cinderella or Peter Pan. Don't worry, you don't need to be able to sing, dance or act...just be able to have fun. Each day will include theatre games and activities that will teach basic stage direction, character building, voice projection and facial expressions. After reading the script in a workshop setting, students will learn the audition process. Once the production is cast, the actors will start rehearsal by learning the script and blocking the show. Don't forget the importance of costumes and make-up; you must also look the part. The fun will finish with our very own Opening Night and Tony Awards. After glamming up in the dressing rooms, Theatre Stars will do a performance just for you. We will follow it up with the Awards Ceremony where they will receive their own Tony Award to take home. When the critics reviews come in, everyone's a hit! How fun is that!
